Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, and Maigrat have fairy godmother-dom thrust upon them.

Solid, vivid and with a fun plot, but a bit flat philosophy-wise

4 stars

A great continuation of the storyline of witches, but this one is about craft, betrayal and Agatha Christy-esque finale. Colourful and interesting read, but – as we know – Pratchett could and did do books where it's all that plus a lot of depth.

I did love the quote where he compares Ankh-Morpork with a drain where everyone ends up and can't escape. As a relatively newfound Londoner, it strikes a chord.
